Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

“Ha.” A sneer escaped from Winnie’s lips. “I guess I’ll never know if I’d end up damaging the clothes or compensating for them, but what I do know is that even in my flats, I’m still taller than you and your sky-high heels.”

The woman’s face flushed red with fury as she heard Winnie insinuating that she was short, for that had always been her sore spot.

Immediately, she stormed right up to Winnie. “Hey! Who are you calling short?”

Even when that woman’s ears had already turned crimson from all the quarreling, there Winnie was, still wearing a visage as calm as a millpond. “I didn’t mean anything like that. Oh, but I can’t help it if you insist on taking criticism for yourself,” was Winnie’s response.

The woman went through the roof on the spot. “Shut the hell up! Just get lost if you’re too broke to get anything. Stop embarrassing yourself.”

Amused, Winnie was about to say something when Lucas suddenly marched toward them.

Unfortunately for the angry woman, Lucas hadn’t the slightest inclination to conduct himself in a gentlemanly manner. In fact, he had a wicked tongue.

“Did I mishear you, brainless dwarf? You said she’s too broke to buy the clothes here?”

The second that woman heard the word “dwarf,” she flew off the handle. Glaring daggers at Lucas, she fumed, “Who the heck are you? You’d better keep your nose out of this!”

As soon as she finished chirping, she scrutinized Lucas from head to toe.

Nevertheless, she failed to perceive a thing because the latter was garbed in his personal, custom-made attire, and there wasn’t anything similar like his in the market.

With a contemptuous smirk playing about her lips, she cast a peek at Lucas. “Oh, I get it now. You two must be a couple—a couple of paupers. You want to speak up for her, don’t you? Why don’t you pay for those two dresses that caught her eye, then? But I should remind you that they each cost more than a hundred thousand, and they don’t go well with flats, just so you know. Pfft. Some people can be so pretentious. They rather hog the good stuff despite knowing that it’ll be wasted on them,” she said, her tone cynical.
